Description

The exquisite cherry wood staircase leads to the upper level retreat with dual master bedrooms, walk-in closets, dual balconies, vaulted study with floor-to-ceiling built-in bookcases, claw-foot tub, walk-in spa shower, and more. The breathtaking spiral staircase leads to the walk-out lower level complete with a guest suite bedroom, family room, storage rooms, wine cellar, and must-see-to-believe completely exposed 20ftx25ft granite rock, which is very much reminiscent of an archaeological site, further preserves and illustrates the historical nature of the home and the site in which it is built on. Original foundation hand-stacked and chiseled stone walls are exposed and showcased throughout the entire bright and sunny lower level. The original pic axe marks from when the home was built in 1896 is etched in time on the exposed granite rock and perfectly spotlit with stunning lighting. Caverns, hidden rooms, and other historical items of both architectural and construction interest abounds throughout the home. Manicured irrigated gardens, fruit trees, iron antique fencing, garage with upper storage loft, garden tool shed, and alley access adds to the features. The entire exterior of the home is appointed with moss-rock stone from Telluride as well as maintenance-free metal roofing.
